5A(1)Where an overseas life insurance company receives a qualifying distribution made by a company resident in the United Kingdom and the distribution (or part of the distribution)—
(a)would fall within paragraph (a), (aa) or (ab) of section 11(2) but for the exclusion contained in that paragraph, and
(b)is referable to life assurance business, but not to overseas life assurance business,
then the recipient shall be treated for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts as entitled to such a tax credit in respect of the distribution (or part of the distribution) as it would be entitled to under section 231 if it were resident in the United Kingdom.
(2)Where part only of a qualifying distribution would fall within paragraph (ab) of section 11(2) but for the exclusion contained in that paragraph, the tax credit to which the recipient shall be treated as entitled by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above is the proportionate part of the tax credit to which the recipient would be so treated as entitled in respect of the whole of the distribution.
[F2(3)Nothing in this paragraph shall be taken to confer on an overseas life insurance company any entitlement to make a claim under section 231(3).]
